I heard Sega Saturn is coming out?

[Gertner]

Is this true cause I'm getting tired of my Genesis

[Nervous Ferret]

lol

[Gertner]

seriously. I've almost beaten Toejam and Earl, I really want to have it beaten before Sega Saturn comes out.

[Silent]

Yeah, they've also started planning a new project called Katana..

[Boondock Saint]

LOL @ Katana. I remember that.

[Ninti the Mad]

HILARIOUS

[Mister Sinister]

Yeah, and don't you know Gertner, they have already planned a system called Dreamcast too, doesn't that just blow your mind

[Shaggy]

Ive heard about the planning of the dreamcast....im sure that will be the best system ever. Blow all the other ones away. Soon Nintendo and Sony will be out of business.

[Loose Cannon]

I dunno, the Jaguar is really interesting to me right now. I hope they make a ton of games for it.

[SukkaChump]

Yes according to my "inside" sources, the Sega Saturn will use CD's instead of Cartidges.. isnt the future amazing? yeah i've also heard that sony is going to be doing the same thing, but i'm pretty sure this whole CD fad will let loose sometime or another, i just hope they make more games for my Sega CD though, now thats the REAL future.

[Fignuts]

3DO is da bomb

[KingofOldSchool]

I really want that new Kriss Kross game that's coming out for the Sega CD.

[Gouda]

CDs are so stupid. They'll die out soon enough and cartridges will live forever!

[Shaggy]

I just dont see how CD games could be better. Look at the size of that compared to a cartridge. The cartridge is way bigger so it should hold alot more stuff on it. No one can beat the graphics now. So why Try?

[Gertner]

Yeah, and don't you know Gertner, they have already planned a system called Dreamcast too, doesn't that just blow your mind

shut -up!!!! That's amazing. brb just finishing Micheal Jackson's moonwalker.

[Xero]

What is this Genesis you speak of? Nintendo Power doesn't have anything about it. Meh, it probably sucks, NOTHING can beat the advanced graphics and sound of the NES...

[Nowhere Man]

NES....pffffft. There's no way that thing can stack up to my Intellivision.

[Loose Cannon]

lol archive this

[KingofOldSchool]

Video games are whack, pinball is where it's at.

[Funky Fly]

TOE JAM AND EARL

[RoXer]

I can't wait for the new Nintendo "dolphin" system.

[Loose Cannon]

I actually have my virtual boy on order right now. I really hope it's a great improvement over Gameboy. I mean they really need to Advance gameboy, don't you think?

[Cool King]

Amstrad CPC464:drool:

[Savio]

I hear a new, better, tomb raider is coming out.

[Xero]

I mean they really need to Advance gameboy, don't you think?
Yeah, but how much more can you cram into that little thing? I mean, MAYBE 10 colors, but even that's pushing it.

[Nervous Ferret]

My parents just told me were getting America Online! A few of my friends have it, and we'll be able to talk "via computer".

[DS]

Too soon.

[Innovator]

Shaq Fu > you

[Gouda]

You should just play the Game Gear. I'm playing it right now. It's so awesome. I think it'sgoing to replace the Gameboy in less than a year.

[Boondock Saint]

TurboGrafx 16 is the future of console gaming.

[SuperSlim]

Game gear is freakin awesome. I was playin Sonic on it. It was just like playing it on my Genesis. :drool:

[Gertner]

* Warning Spoiler Alert"

I heard there is going to be a new character in Sonic the Hedgehog.

His name will be Tails

[Loose Cannon]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!!!!! I just read in my new Nintendo Power that Super Nintendo is coming out with this awesome new shooter device for the games.

Check this fucker out.

[Tornado]

I will be holding a funeral for the joke next week.

[Boondock Saint]

I will be holding a funeral for the joke next week.

LOL

[AareDub]

rofl @ Tornado

[Loose Cannon]

it's all fun and games until the guy with the lightsaber ruins it. :nono:

[Savio]

Hey tornado how is tipsters coming?

[Tornado]

Hey tornado how is tipsters coming?
Dave is supposed to be doing the results, i'll check with him, hopefully they should be up soon.

[Savio]

wasn't one doing raw and one doing SD!?

[Tornado]

wasn't one doing raw and one doing SD!?
That was just posting, it'll be up soon.

Dave has a kid, and I have a new full time job, so neither of us have a lot of spare time, but relax, they will be done.

[Savio]

Oh I beat my kids I wouldn't know.

[tucsonspeed6]

I don't know about these "games" you speak of, but you know what I like to do? I like to roll a small metal hoop down the road with a stick!

[DS]

Well there is a worthy bump.

[Nervous Ferret]

lol Gertner has had 2 gimmick changes since he made this thread

[Xero]

Hey, I just heard about this neat new game called Monopoly! Apparently, you can play as an iron, a doggy, or even a boat! And they buy properties and sell them, and trade, all that good stuff!

Although, I don't see how an iron can own property. A boat, maybe, but an iron!?

[Silent]

THE FUNERAL IS HERE

[Bad News Gertner]

Jesus

[Seanny One Ball]

I had a Saturn. I specifically got that instead of a PSX.

Sometimes kids make bad decisions, but I'll be fucked if that was one of them.

[Fignuts]

Good joke, Gertner.

[Fignuts]

I had a Saturn. I specifically got that instead of a PSX.

Sometimes kids make bad decisions, but I'll be fucked if that was one of them.

Fighting games on the Saturn typically had wayyyyy better ports than ps1.

[Seanny One Ball]

What's a port?

Fighters Megamix was the tits. It had so much going for it ahead of other games. It just looked blocky as fuck.

My Saturn still worked last time I set it up. Megamix was impossibly hard even on easy. I must have lost the power.

[Fignuts]

Port is when you take say an arcade game and put it on a home console. Fighters like X-men vs Street Fighter were much better on Saturn.

[Seanny One Ball]

Ah, I should know that from King Of Kong.

[Fignuts]

Anything brought from one platform to another is a port, actually.

[Ruien]

I never beat Toejam and Earl :(

[Bad News Gertner]

Good joke, Gertner.

I'm still not sure what I was trying to do there

[RaginRonic]

I feel it's appropriate to bust out this classic.

=)

[DAMN iNATOR]

I had a Saturn. I specifically got that instead of a PSX.

Sometimes kids make bad decisions, but I'll be fucked if that was one of them.

Whenever I read PSX, I always think of that awkward attempt they made at trying to get a piece of the home entertainment/electronics market.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fa/Console_psx.jpg/300px-Console_psx.jpg

I remember it flopped pretty big time, was supposed to be a PS2 combined with a DVR, IIRC.

[DAMN iNATOR]

BTW, anybody heard anything about this Magnavox Odyssey thing? It seems #PrettyCool, but I'm skeptical.

[Big Vic]

Ah, I should know that from King Of Kong.

I hope they do a re-release of this movie with all the new info that has come out.

[Bad News Gertner]

Loved that movie. A follow-up would be awesome. What new info came out?

[Bad News Gertner]

Like seriously, wtf at this thread. I created it at 12:17am so there's a good chance I was on something when this thread was made.

[Seanny One Ball]

Loved that movie. A follow-up would be awesome. What new info came out?

Billy Mitchell actually did lie and cheat with emulators for a bunch of his records.

The film becomes even better with this in mind. The commentary is good but Vic is right, a new version exposing Mitchell would be great.

[Bad News Gertner]

Holy shit that's crazy

[Fignuts]

Like seriously, wtf at this thread. I created it at 12:17am so there's a good chance I was on something when this thread was made.

Also everyone in the thread, myself included running the joke into the ground like we’re Michael Cole or something.

[Droford]

the only non nintendo unit I ever had was a Game Gear. I remember seeing a Sega Nomad at one point but it came out same time as Saturn and all the nomad was was a portable genesis..and like a month later it wasnt selling at EB out to our mall

[Droford]

Oh I was never into sega home console but I used to drop a bunch of money every saturday at the arcade playing Daytona USA and virtua fighter

[Danny Electric]

I had a Sega Saturn as well, remember a mate of mine having one who lived close by so I thought we could trade games etc. Then he sold his pretty much straight after.

Sega Rally was awesome, even with its very limited scope. I remember owning a copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga, which was the best. Really wish I still had it with how much it’s going for on eBay.

[Danny Electric]

Wow even the demo sells for 12 quid which you got free at the time with the Sega Saturn magazine.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Oh I was never into sega home console but I used to drop a bunch of money every saturday at the arcade playing Daytona USA and virtua fighter

The old "Genesis does what NintenDON'T!" thing didn't grab ya, huh?

[Seanny One Ball]

I had a letter published in Gamesmaster Magazine as a kid asking about Panzer Dragoon Saga.

[Fignuts]

Remember envelope art? That shit was awesome.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Oh I was never into sega home console but I used to drop a bunch of money every saturday at the arcade playing Daytona USA and virtua fighter

I used to go to the in-game arcade in the mall in the late '90s-very early 2000s and just spend so much money playing NBA on NBC and Gauntlet Legends. I spent countless attempts and failures at finding that damned 12th rune before finally getting it and going on to beat the game and collecting the 13th and final rune. I remember being honestly amazed at some of the machines being able to save progress as I never went to any arcades really in my most youthful days.

[Tom Guycott]

seriously. I've almost beaten Toejam and Earl, I really want to have it beaten before Sega Saturn comes out.

On a related note, I recently purchased T&E: Back In The Groove. Nice update of the original. Plenty of nostalgia, a few new tidbits, and most importantly, current controllers are a lot less stiff than the Genesis d-pad, so some of the added "difficulty" created by said controls is gone.

Still, a refreshing change to all the "live services". Something I can pick up and play for a short jaunt or long haul without being repeatedly begged for more money? Yes, please. Kinda ironic, in a game all about a very early form of loot boxes in randomized presents (until you identify them).
